There's some superb images coming in of the stratification exposed on rocks in the Erebus highway... it looks like this place was worth a visit for itself (of course) and not just for sticky drift avoidance...

I should probably get excited about pictures of the sand and pebbles too but I can't seem to laugh.gif

attached is one such partial image posted 17-Sep

18 months ago, I saw a blueberry muffin at a supermarket and chuckled to myself

Yesterday - I saw an ICED blueberry muffin in the same place in the same store... I began to wonder, with the rind observations, perhaps a product line manager for Morrisons is an MER fan smile.gif

I was reminded of this post this weekend as I nibbled on macadamia nuts thinking how much they looked like Iapetus.
